Description
“SeaBreezes” located at 44 Quay Street, presents an opportunity to acquire one of those coastal gems in Skerries that come along once in a generation, if you're lucky, where the orientation of the coastline allows you to enjoy views across Skerries Bay from Barnageeragh to the Harbour in the evening setting sun, perhaps prompting a walk around The Head with the promise of refreshments to ease the passage home!! SeaBreezes presents a partially complete canvass… all that's missing is your inspiration!
A gentle rub on the lamp and when the Genie appears we only want a single wish “…sale agreed, please…” There is an Aladdin's Cave like entrance from Quay Street, building your anticipation as you tip toe through the cave and arrive in a wonderfully lighted, small courtyard/patio as you move towards the main house. In truth, the property is accessed via a traditional stone cottage from Quay Street that while offering both off street parking and complete privacy, at the same time provides tremendous opportunity for enhancement… home office, air B&B, independent living, artist's studio, treatment rooms, workshop etc.
Inside this surprisingly roomy and unique, bespoke home, the accommodation provides 4 bedrooms and generous living spaces, all oriented to capture the breathtaking, uninterrupted seascape encapsulating Balscadden Bay, the Mourne Mountains and Skerries Harbour. The rear garden extends practically to the water's edge, providing direct access to the beach, while a secluded internal courtyard offers a private sun-soaked retreat from noon until evening.
The property is nestled in one of the best and most sought-after settings in Skerries where extensive views of the beach and harbour areas are accentuated by spectacular sunsets that are almost unmatched on the east coast. All of this in the heart of the town that has been described as the best place to live in Ireland, walking distance to all amenities yet quietly tucked away far from the madding crowd! Is this the best kept secret in Skerries? We think it is… do you? Well… you're going to have to contact us to find out as viewings are by appointment only.
Whether you're an avid sea sports enthusiast or simply someone who appreciates the stunning beauty and tranquility of the sea, this property offers the perfect combination of coastal living and convenient access to a wealth of amenities right at your doorstep. Best town to live in Ireland… it's hard to argue otherwise! Accommodation
